Legislative group blog

In what is believed to be a first for a legislative caucus in the U.S., all 27 Democrats of the Oregon House have joined together to publish a group blog, Oregon House Democrats. This is considered especially important because the Democrats are the minority party and their blog allows citizens to comment on each legislator's posts. Reported in "27 Legislators, One Blog" in Politics and Technology, itself an informative blog on politics and the net.
